Ellen was our nanny for right around a year. She was fantastic! She got along so well with our son, and I loved working with her. I worked from home while she was working with us, so I really got to see how she interacted with our son. She watched him from when he was about 6 months old until he was about 18 months. She took initiative in taking him to play gyms and the library during the long winters and to the park during the nicer months. She could get him to nap even when he was severely jet lagged or when we spent all weekend messing with his sleep schedule. She was also super flexible if we were late coming home or staying after hours if I wanted to go out with friends. If we hadn't moved away, we would still be using her whenever possible!
